category antrim | miscellaneous | news report author Sunday October 12, 2003 22:41author by Jenny B Report this post to the editors

Catriona Ruanne of the 'Bring them home Colombia 3 campaign is set to stand in the forthcoming NI elections as a possible candidate in South Down. The Colombian 3, pensioner James Monaghan, Niall Connolly and Michael McCauley have been held in a Colombian jail, by Colombia's right wing junta military government.

Despite the Colombian Junta government having no physical or forensic evidence against them, the 2 men and pensioner have been held for 2 years in a Colombian jail and face an already fixed outcome show trial in a Colombian junta kangaroo court.

"the 2 men and pensioner have been held for 2 years in a Colombian jail"

Does one cease to be a man on becoming a pensioner?

if they had been in the middle of AUC territory then it would have been different, or if they had been picked up in the middle of CIA/plan Colombia territory, (oh they were- ooops), or if they had been picked up in downtown Bogota, it would have been different...
Colombia is different full stop.
Bring them home to chastise or greet them, but bring them home and thus hopefully some day through the added interest and application of norms of human rights and justice, some day all the little colombians will maybe enjoy those rights you used to take for granted in Ireland.

Pat C's opinions and comments should be ignored, as he supports the murder of innocent civilians.

why did gerry adams deny all knowledge of these "observers" as soon as they surfaced.


Also has anyone notice how FARC have increased car bomb and urban attacks, a once noted tactic of the bold IRA.
Coalescing with the FARC is serious and they should pay.

i think catrioná ruanne is right in what she is doing and should be congratulated instead of being mocked and accused! Tíochfaidh Ar La! BRING THEM HOME PLEASE!!!
